Saying goodbye to Obinna - help with funeral expenses
Emeka lost his grandfather suddenly and the family can't cover funeral and burial costs of $250.
🇳🇬 Rivers, Nigeria404 views
Obinna, my grandfather, passed away on 18 August after a long fight with kidney disease. He was 79 years old. He was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance.
The funeral home has given us a quote of $250 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 29 August.
I have already used what I had for the hospital bills. My family is scattered, and many of us are out of work. We want Obinna to have a dignified farewell.
Any help at all means a lot, and so do your prayers.
Anything left over after the funeral will be donated to a local food bank.
Where the $250 goes:
• Memorial gathering for the family: $35
• Cemetery plot and burial fees: $160
• Transport of the deceased: $55
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Hang in there, Emeka. Shared this with my family. My husband and I read this together. All the best.
